Be it known that I, ARNOLD: PAcYNA, acitizen of the -United. States, residingat Evanston, in the countyof Cook and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in. Machines for Making Double-Faced Corrugated Paper, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing. 1'

' My invention relates to machines forma-k ing double-faced corrugated paper, and in the present invention a strip of single-faced corrugated paper and a strip of plain lining or facing paper are fed into the machine,

paste is applied to the crowns of the unlined side of the web, and the two strips are then brought tog-ether and passed through a suitable drier or heater to remove the moisture and dry the paste, the material being moved through the drier or heater by means of a pair of endless open-mesh carriers, preferably of woven metallic fabric, to'facilita'te the removal of the moisture and drying of the paste, and is then fed to a cutter which severs the web into suitable lengths or sheets.

The invention consists in the matters here inafter described and then pointed out in In the-acc0mpanying drawings, which illustrate a practical embodiment of my present invention, Figure 1 is a side elevation showing the frontend of a machine having my invention for applying a liner sheet to a single-faced corrugated sheet to make double-faced corrugated sheets; Fig. 2 is a similar view of the rear end of the machine of Fig. 1 including the rear end of the drier or heater, feed belts, and aprondrive; Fig.3 is a top plan view of the parts of Fig. 1; Fig. 4 is a similar view of the parts of Fig. 2; Fig. 5'is a longitudinal sec? tional view of part oft-he drier; -Fig. 6 is a cross-sectional view of partsof the drier.

The same reference letters refer to the same or corresponding parts in the several VleWS.

posing a single-faced corrugated web or sheet, is fed over a which is provided wit paste from any suitable ll to apply it to the crowns of the Speifidatlon of Iletters Patent? applicationfiled.August 29, 1910. Serial 10,579,584.

A strip of corrugated paper 10 providedv with a lining or facing '30 on one side, comaste-applying roll flO;

- unlined .sideof a e at which islheld i contact, therewith by a pressure roller 42. The second liner, .43 is led from a suitable rollbetween. a ,p'airof pressure, rolls 44 lo.-, cated at the entrance to asuitablelheater and between which the corrugatedl'web and second liner are, passed for the purpose of at taching the latter to. the exposed crowns of the former as shown in Fig.1. The pressure rolls 44 are mounted infbearing boxes ,45 adjustable on the frame by any suita e means, as the well knownadjusting screws 46 having swivel-connections with the boxes and threaded enga ement with the frame as is customary, for t e purpose of graduating the distance between these rolls to vary the thickness of t-he'sheet or web as by crushing or flattening more'or less the c'rownsof the web. This also ncreases the surface of the crowns to recelvexth'e paste'and consequently the sticking surface of the web.

, The drier or heater as preferably constructed consists of an opposite pair of-hollow castings or plates 47 and 48 suitably supported on the frame and spaced'apart and betweenwhich the material passes, the top plate preferably being-adjustable to-' ward and away from-the lower plate by suitable means such as thescrew bolts 49' adjustably connecting it to the frame. The chambers ofthe castings or: lates are connected to ajsuitable source 0 steam supply, and the upper casting 47 is providedatintervals along its lower face with anumber of curved recesses..50 in each of which a roller 51 is mounted ;to revolve, the roller being journaled at eachend in suitable bear ings in thecasting-and being hollow and erforated at intervals in'its-surface, one 0 .its journals 52 being hollow and suitably connected to a pipe 53r passing through a suitable stufiing box in the casting and suitably connected to the pipe54 of anysuitable exhaust apparatus .(not shown) whereby air and moisture are drawn or; The rollers 51 are so journaled that theyv roje'ct slightly below the plane of 't lielowe r. ace of the cast ing .or plate in order'to help overcome friction between the plate and an endless web moving belt (hereinafter described) and so facilitate the progression of the web of aper through the heater or drier. The ower plate 48 is providedin its upper facewith a series of recesses 55 havin n'erfo-' ets 61 on shafts 62 one of which receives mopaper but allow all moisture to be drawn 01f material and so of oppositely. disposed drying-plates, a pair of endless open-mesh carriers having their ing their carrying runs between the plates,

drums 58 on the frame of the heater with spaced a suitable distance apart to obtain this result. The belt-carriers are .dr1v en.by

-Each apron is arranged within its correa suitable exhaust device, and a series of rollers in one of the plates bearing on the rated tops and containing a pipe 576 connected to the exhaust pipe 54 to draw off the air and moisture. Therecesses in the plates are preferably out of alinement or staggered as shown in Fig. 5, thereby extending the drying action over practically the entire web or sheet in the drier.-

The corrugated web is moved through the drier or heater by means of an oppositely a ranged pair ot'endless belts 57 compfisedof" open-mesh wire cloth and traveling over the contiguous or adjacent runs of the belts arrangedas shown to'receive the paper mav terial there-between, the adjacent or operative runs of the belts being held engaged with the material by the pressure rollers 44 and by the opposite plates of the heater which when the machine is in operation are any suitable means and preferably by a pair of endless aprons as shown in Figs. 2. and 5.
